When Olweus (1984) began his work with bullying in the early 1970's, few administrators recognized it as more than a rite of passage. However, as the incidents become more and more brutal and responses to bullying evoke suicides and school killings, politicians and educators are beginning to take notice. Still, bullying is increasing in schools in part due to the lack of consistent consequences and training. Adult intervention is imperative to reduce bullying. Until this time, school support staff has been largely disregarded as important tools in reducing bullying. However, school support staff are more likely to be present when bullying occurs since school bus drivers, paraprofessionals, playground supervisors, crossing guards and others are often where bullying occurs most (i.e., recess, the lunchroom, the bus). This paper seeks to determine whether middle school support staff is responsive to bullying situations in the schools where they work and what if anything they have done to prevent or intervene in bullying activity. The researcher used the Colorado Trust Bullying Prevention Initiative Staff Questionnaire (CTBPS) to survey 72 support staff in the Chicago area schools and then conducted personal interviews with 15 support staff to record more personal answers about school policy and their role in preventing and intervening with bullying. Perhaps not surprisingly, the researcher found that middle school support staff lacks training and knowledge to deal with bullying. Although they witness bullying events, they deal with them inconsistently and fail to report all incidents to superiors. Most middle school support staff are, however, willing to aid in implementing school-wide anti-bullying policies.
